Topical Hemp Releaf Formula For Pain
Fight pain and feel better naturally with fast-acting topical formulas combining the world’s most powerful natural ingredients for targeted topical relief.
Healing With Hemp
HealthSmart Labs products use broad spectrum hemp extract from organically grown hemp as the primary active ingredient in our pain formulations. Hemp has been used since ancient times for its natural healing properties. In fact, the first recorded use of hemp as medicine dates back to 2737 B.C. Our careful selection of synergistic healing compounds from nature are combined with hemp oil to work in therapeutic harmony providing rapid and long-lasting relief.
Terpene Synergy
Terpenes are organic compounds produced by plants throughout nature. When these natural compounds are inhaled, consumed or applied topically they can greatly enhance our experience and influence flavors and aromas. Terpenes interact synergistically with other botanical compounds and human hormones to create a phenomenon referred to as the “entourage effect” that magnifies the benefits of the plant’s individual components.
LINALOOL
A calming agent in many essential oil blends, linalool has often been used for anxiety and pain. It also shows promise in clinical studies as a potential anticonvulsant and has antibacterial properties that could be effective in treating the core causes of acne. While linalool can be found in over 200 plant species, it’s most commonly associated with lavender.
A-PINENE
Alpha-pinene is the most abundant terpene found in nature, and as the name suggests, it plays a big role in the smell of pine trees. Some of the common uses currently being investigated for this terpene include pain, anxiety and inflammation. Pinene is also being studied for neuroprotective potential and effects on improved memory.
B-CARYOPHYLLENE
β-Caryophyllene is a spicy, peppery terpene found in many different edible plants. Spices like black pepper, cloves, and cinnamon, as well as herbs like oregano, basil, hops, and rosemary, are known to exhibit high concentrations of caryophyllene. Due to its affinity to the peripheral CB2 receptors, caryophyllene often appears in anti-inflammatory topicals and salves.
A-BISABOLOL
Alpha Bisabolol is the major active component of Chamomile. It has long been used in cosmetics for its potential anti-inflammatory, healing, soothing, and anti-microbial properties. Bisabolol is also demonstrated to enhance the percutaneous absorption of certain molecules helping potentially improve bioavailability of active ingredients in topical formulations.
Essential Wellness
Camphor – Peppermint – Eucalyptus – Tea Tree – Frankincense
Essential oils are compounds extracted from plants through steam distillation to capture the plant’s aroma and flavor, or “essence.” Essential oils include biological compounds like growth factors, hormones, and neurotransmitters that are concentrated from the plant. Essential oils can be up to 100 times more potent than the plant itself, so their effects can be noticeable with just a tiny amount.
Our unique blend of soothing essential oils gives our topical formulations a soothing aroma that lets the mind and body know relief is on the way.
Arnica Montana
Arnica has been used for medicinal purposes since the 1500’s and is commonly used as a homeopathic treatment for inflammatory pain. Athletes rub it on muscles to soothe soreness and strains, and arthritis sufferers rub it on joints to manage pain and swelling. Plastic surgeons also recommend arnica to patients for bruising and swelling associated with cosmetic procedures.
Menthol
Menthol is a topical analgesic that creates a diversion from pain by cooling the skin and then warming it. This change in temperature prevents nerves from effectively transmitting pain, providing rapid results and reducing acute pain symptoms.
